The Denali Ultimate is the most luxurious variant with 24-inch wheels, laser-etched wood décor, and executive seating while the AT4 Ultimate comes with many off-road features with a skid plate, 20-inch all-terrain tyres, premium interior materials, and adjustable air suspension.

    Every Yukon variant will have enhanced technology, including an 11-inch instrument display, a new 16.8-inch tablet-style infotainment screen, and an optional 8-inch touchscreen for second-row passengers. Additionally, the Yukon has introduced GMC’s first-ever night vision system that helps drivers detect hazards on dark roads.

    The 2025 Yukon despite the added screens keeps physical buttons for various controls and air conditioning. It also comes with a sliding power centre console and a jackknife alert, and for hands-free rear access, it features a presence-based power liftgate.

    GMC has not yet disclosed the 2025 Yukon’s pricing, but production is expected to start soon at their Arlington, Texas plant. It is expected to reach the customers by the end of 2024.
